Speaking in Budalang’i on Friday, Ruto told ODM that just like any other political party, LPK and party leader Ababu Namwamba had the constitutional right to choose whom to relate with.

“You do not go around, day in day out, criticising somebody because they left some party,” the DP said.

“These people should leave you alone. What matters to us is development, not cheap propaganda,” he added.

Ruto also added that he was certain Namwamba would work with the Jubilee Party to help transform livelihoods among the people of Budalang’i as well as the country as a whole.
